I am a child of books. I come from a world of stories.

Stories bring us together, provide shared experiences and glimpses into the unknown, broaden outlooks, entertain, transport, educate, and inspire. Reading is the foundation of every child’s education, and fostering a love of story is the first step in creating a reader. Oliver Jeffers and fine artist Sam Winston’s immersive and unforgettable picture book, A Child of Books, will inspire young readers to create, to question, to explore and to imagine.

To celebrate the paperback publication of this stunning picture book, we’ve teamed up with Walker Books to offer schools the chance to receive a FREE A Child of Books pack for their school, including branded posters, postcards and a link to a detailed online Teachers' Guide.

Like the book itself, we hope the packs will inspire and encourage children to celebrate the power of storytelling and realise that with a little imagination, anything can happen!

A Child of Books

In this inspiring, lyrical tale about the rewards of reading and sharing stories, a little girl sails her raft "across a sea of words" to arrive at the house of a small boy. There she invites him to come away with her on an adventure. Through forests of fairy tales and across mountains of make-believe, the two travel together on a fantastical journey that unlocks the boy's imagination. Now a lifetime of magic lies ahead of him... But who will be next?
